imagine if you will
Imagine, one million commuters in air cars over Washington DC and New York who have no idea of FFA rules for fly, no fly zones. These commuters don't understand wind sheer or the turbulence behind heavy jumbo jets.

Sixty years ago air cars may have been a viable concept. The skys are getting crowded now and the room for wannabe part time pilots is past tense.

Can they put enough electronics such as auto guidance systems, collision avoidance systems and other idiot proof systems in that car to make it safe for those who aren't real pilots?
